Prayer times in Alief — common questions
What time is Fajr in Alief today?
Fajr in Alief begins at 05:15 AM today. Fajr starts at true dawn, when the sun reaches a set angle below the horizon, and ends at sunrise — so this time shifts by a minute or two each day as the season changes.
Which direction is the Qibla from Alief?
From Alief, the Qibla is 45.3° from true north — roughly NE. Remember that a phone compass points to magnetic north, so you may need to correct for local magnetic declination.
Which calculation method is used for Alief?
These times use the MWL convention, which is the standard recognised across United States. If your mosque follows a different authority, its Fajr and Isha may differ by several minutes — the calculation is identical, only the twilight angle changes.
How much does daylight change through the year in Alief?
Day length in Alief ranges from about 10.2 hours at midwinter to 14.1 hours at midsummer — a swing of roughly 3.9 hours. This is why Fajr and Isha move so much between seasons while Dhuhr stays close to midday.
How far is Alief from Makkah?
Alief lies approximately 12594 km from the Kaaba in Makkah, measured as a great circle across the Earth's surface. That distance is what determines the Qibla bearing shown above.
